When I first saw the 2020 Corvette from the sideview and how it bows in, it reminded me of the Ford GT that costs a measly 500k. This was the coupe I'm talking about. This car is a bargain and with mid-engine and superb dynamics and is going to give Euro exotics fits. The Mustang is already the best selling sports car in Germany and now we have the Vette. It just goes to show that American cars can stomp the rest when we put our minds to it.
Hell yeah man i was amazed at the mustang popularity in other countries im glad someone recognizes that and of course the vette is stepping it up. All american muscle and sports cars are stomping these past recent years man! ## Murica!!!
My Dad is totally stoked... We have been going over the order form... Just a little bit longer and the trigger can finally be pulled... Thanks to CHEVY DUDE!!!!
As a former banker, you must dispute credit or debit charges within 60 days of your charge/order, so do it as soon as possible and have proper documentation. For example you make a purchase today and your statement cuts off this Friday then you only have 60 days from Friday to dispute that charge. It’s very very rare to have a timeframe that is longer. Any dispute after those 60 days are between you and the merchant. In addition it’s not the responsibility of the credit card company to give you your money back. Read the rules and regulations for any credit card and I promise it will state something to the effect that the credit card company only gets involved as a last result. Now most all credit card companies will intervene within that 60 day notification period because they want to keep your business. Call your credit card company to see what their policy is before you put a deposit down thinking you’re automatically getting it back past that 60 day policy as the Chevy Dude states on this video.
Hey Chevy Dude! I enjoy watching your channel brother. Finally a car dealer who isn't trying to stick it to the customer at every turn. Taking advantage of the customers is why people hate car dealers as a rule. If I ever decide to buy a new car I will drive from Wilmington, NC to your dealership and hopefully I can deal with you directly. I may sound like a fool to some haters/skeptics but listen man I think I can trust you to give the truth. A now dedicated watcher of Chevy Dude. Steve C.
My stepfather was THE Cadillac lease and fleet salesman for the downtown Houston Cadillac Dealer back in the day. Most of the oil barons in Houston bought from him and one of the reasons, he told me, is he was straight arrow dealing with those heavy money guys. He did teach me a lot about buying a car, new or used and all the then ongoing scams so many dealers used. His dealer was a lot like ChevyDudes in terms of reputation, etc. From what I know about the business, Davenport makes a damn good living being fair, no scams, and trying to sell you the car you want at a decent no scam price to get your business from now on. That is how my stepfather did business and keep his membership at the country club where many of his car sales actually happened. I read and watch Davenport's posts at the ripe old age of 80 because he entertains me with the real facts. There is going to be a ton of Chevy dealers who are going to try and get way more than MSRP out of C8 one way or another. My wife was from Kentucky and she told me that Davenport's dealer was famous for NOT screwing people.
Great informative video ! If I lived in the US, I would definitely buy from you. I'm so excited that Chevrolet had decided to manufacture the C8 in right hand drive too, as GMH here in Australia have announced that it will be selling the Corvette for the first time ever in 2020 ! I'm hoping we can customise our purchase for the C8 just like you guys in the US.
Can’t afford a new C8 but Chevy Dude is always upfront with how this stuff works. Thanks for the video! I’m still shocked at how low the starting price is on this new C8. GM is going to move a bunch of these cars I believe.
Funny, I called a local Chevy dealer asking about the 2020 Corvette, they transferred me to the sales manager who told me to go to the chevy site and order it.
With the way the engine looks inside the engine compartment, it looks like it's a very tight fit so doing maintenance is going to be a problem. It might require a full engine and transmission drop to do spark plugs, serpentine belt, water pump, and any other type of maintenance that you cannot get from the top.
ADVICE: get EVERYTHING in writing and signed by the manager. Best advice I got before buying my c7 Z06. Have them type up everything you want done and don’t want, any minor detail. I told them I didn’t even want their detail kids to touch my car as I was taking it a my preferred detail shop(shop told me to not have the dealer detail shop touch it and to even get that in writing) the dealer thought that request was odd but it was my car that I was paying a bunch of money for. This way I had no hidden surprises for the first time. Dealers like to slide in hidden money makers. Again EVERYTHING YOU and anything NOT on the agreement you will not pay for and they will be responsible for.
Wow, amazing video's on C8. Has really helped me a lot. Seriously considering getting a C8 but i am patient and in no rush. I live in VA but would consider buying from you since i feel confident i won't get scammed. We shall see. Thx!
Additional addendums! Yes, I remember this. When I bought my C7 they added in that stupid wheel n tire protection without asking. I then called up the company to have it removed
Thank you, so much for the hard work that you put in to sales. For the All American new Supercar the Corvette. Can you get any information about the C8 Z06 yet? I'm a 2017 C7 Z06 owner, out of Ocala, FL. Please keep me informed about the new C8 Z06, I NEED ONE VERY SOON! US Navy/Retired.
I can't believe your boss let you smoke the tires in the parking lot. My boss would have had a cow,wrote me up or fired me. Hell they didn't like the loud exhaust on my '81 Silverado. LMAO
It’s amazing Chevy Dudes dealership doesn’t charge above MSRP. It would be so tempting to do since there would be plenty of people willing to pay above MSRP for this new Vette.
Dude thank you, lol Chevy Dude thank you... I’m in Texas and thinking this may be the case and I want to know how to figure out if this dealer will or will not have cars. ‼️👌👏🔥
What's the rush? You don't buy in the first year of release, to give the company a chance to sort out the bugs with the car. I suspect the cost of insurance will be substantial.
Woo-Hoo! Good burnout! Now, the first new 2020 c8 Vette you get on the lot, do a burn out for we can compare ? Just for buying comparisons purposes only of course.
Your videos are great. There’s no doubt about that. I’ve been a subscriber for a while. Last year I was in the market for a truck and thought hey why not buy it from the Chevy dude. Well my experience of trying to get ahold of you was cut short by your assistant. Your assistant asked questions that made me feel like I was being screened to be allowed to work with you. Long story short I purchased my truck from another Chevy dealership. Please don’t take offense to this. That’s not my intention. I will continue to watch your videos and use your advice. However when I get ready to buy my C8 next year it will be from another dealer. Advice. Drop your assistant and deal directly with your customers. On a side not your sincerity and personality make great videos.
My Corvette specialist wont contact me after I purchased a 2019GSC actually after the 2020 unveiling does anyone have any idea what's some of these dealership worried about ... all I wanted to do is see my options for trading for the c8..
MSRP: Manufacturers SUGGESTED retail price why can’t a dealer charge over sticker on a hot item? Supply and demand. Did you get a discount on your iPhone or what ever cell phone you have ? Is Apple of Samsung thieves for making so much money per phone? Etc etc
TBH, that console looks like it could easily be home to a manual shifter and given that every Porsche that comes with a stick is spontaneously spoken for upon announcement, I am pretty sure that they are going to release one as soon as the majority of C7 stock is depleted. I would hold out for at least a solid "yes" or "no". We all know the story of the '68 Corvettes as well, so that is my take. My neighbor up the street has had every new 'Vette since the '90 ZR-1, so I know I'll be taking a ride in one as soon as they are out to the public and I actually can't wait to go for that hell ride.
$10K non-refundable deposit with $10K markup at Riverside Chevrolet in Rome, GA. I was #4 on their list (supposedly) but walked out this past Saturday after hearing all this. Now I’m bummed as hell
Hello, You mentioned Spring Mountain, I live in Las Vegas and would love to know dates the Corvette Team will be there for I am guessing Ride & Drives. Please share date. Thank you.
Wheels magazine here in Australia has quoted a price between $170000aud to $280000aud for down here so it’s not affordable for Australians at least , wish they were $60000 down here I would have one in a hart beat in black
All other auto makers take note this is how to sell a tone of cars very fast, no electric bull shit and not a stupid 100k $ price under 60k auto makers follow chevy with the new Corvette
Chevy Dude, can you or one of your viewers help me with some research. I am new to the corvette world, just bought a 2017 Z06 2LZ coupe in Admiral Blue with 1595 miles for 67,400. Love the car, I am trying to find out the exact number produced. Went on GM website and got all the numbers for 2017 production. Got total number of all production, then break down of 1,2,3 LZ numbers in Coupe. Finally they show a total of 440 Admiral Blue produced. I contacted the Heritage Center and the Assembly plant in Kentucky and they could not give me the exact number. My car has Chrome Aluminum wheels. So, to reiterate, trying get to find production numbers of 2017 Admiral Blue Z06 2LZ Coupe with Chrome Aluminum wheels. Thanks to you or viewers in advance for any help.
Why would there be allocations for a mass produced car? What if I configure and order a C8 online, and have it shipped to my local dealership? Does that count as an allocation?

Excellent video for buying ANY new car.
Honestly thank you so much for posting this I’m sure this will be a big help for people buying this car.

I can’t even drive anymore, but I enjoy your videos
wifey will want a new set of tires!
I just put new Michelin Pilot Super Sport ZP tires on my C7. Expensive. I trust that the C7 in which he was doing the senseless burnout isn't his car.
Ur invite to the reveal cancel was B's. GM owes u one. Looking forward to c8 content. Awesome channel

Good info. Thanks Chevy Dude.
Nice opening shot
Great information ℹ️ made me a subscriber
Great Video! Excellent advice! Thanks for the insight!
Hey Chevy dude what do you think is going to happen to the C7 prices and value by next summer ?
Got mine ordered up here in Canada. I'm hoping they come out with a ZR1 package before the builds begin
How do I buy a C8 Corvette from you
Thank you Chevy Dude!
I can't believe your boss let you smoke the tires in the parking lot. My boss would have had a cow,wrote me up or fired me. Hell they didn't like the loud exhaust on my '81 Silverado. LMAO

Dude, do the the C8 have Blind spot monitor, cross traffic alert, and more safety features? Why don't you talk about those features?
Great information! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Thanks for the help and good information!
ADM or markup is not a scam. If a person is willing to pay more to be an early purchaser that is their choice.
in a few months they will be all over the lots...
Great Video!!! Do you recommend waiting for the second allocation? Why???
Thanks Chevy Dude!
What's the rush? You don't buy in the first year of release, to give the company a chance to sort out the bugs with the car. I suspect the cost of insurance will be substantial.
You're not supposed to let out a burnout sitting still or shut the car off right after
Blowoytreartrannynsuspeneionroddsonengine
Woo-Hoo! Good burnout! Now, the first new 2020 c8 Vette you get on the lot, do a burn out for we can compare ? Just for buying comparisons purposes only of course.
Need this guy to go to the dealership with me
I will check getting it into Canada;;;; your awsome;;; straight forward;;; good job brother
Great info but with Kramer behind you I cant help but laugh thinking about the Seinfeld show.
In the state of Oklahoma we pay tag & tax to the tag office. Not the dealer.
Im gonna wait for a used one on the market :) tripple black :)
I don’t have it in me to do burnouts in my Vette 😞.
you don't want a sad vette, treat that girl right.. they love.. running a few gears down an some tir'shred'n smoke!

Is their going to be other variations of the Corvette. Still a front engine version?
now it will go back on the lot for sale to the first sucker
Love ya Mike!
What about ordering out of state and having Chevy ship directly to local dealer?
Why not just wait until they have it in the dealer parking then go choose it?
I would like to get on the list for sometime in 2020. How do I sign up good Sir? Kindly advise.
Great Video..
Do we have to pay doc fee if we are already paying msrp? We all know after so long the sales start coming under msrp.
